Over the years, the Lu family has been able to develop steadily in Jiangdong despite being opposite the Xu Zhao and Gao families in Ming Dynasty.

And it is getting better and better. The fundamental reason is because of the support of Right Prime Minister Wen Songtao.

Speaking of Wen Songtao, he has a close relationship with the Lu family.

He is also from Jiangdong. He comes from a poor family and was once in trouble when he was young.

By chance, I met the old man of the Lu family, Lu Yaoyao's grandfather.

At that time, the Lu family was just starting out, and the two had similar aspirations. Mr. Lu helped Wen Songtao a lot.

Later, Wen Songtao became an official in the court and reciprocated the favor, secretly also helping the Lu family a lot.

As his official position grew, the contact between the two families decreased a lot.

Compared with official and business transactions, it is easy to be caught and made a fuss about.

However, although the exchanges have decreased a lot, the friendship has not diminished.

Let’s just say that the Lu family and Xu Zhao had a falling out later. According to Xu Zhao’s virtue and Gao Yanming’s help, why could the Lu family still be stable?

All relied on the secret help of Wen Xiang.

Later, when Lu Yaoyao wanted to open Baizhen Tower, Mr. Lu personally wrote a letter to Minister Wen.

Upon hearing the news, Wen Xiang said nothing and directly expressed his willingness to stand up for Lu Yaoyao, a junior like him.

After Baizhenlou's business improved, Lu Yaoyao asked shopkeeper Zhou to send five thousand taels to the Wen family every month.

Friendship, no matter how deep it is, cannot withstand constant consumption.

Five thousand taels is not too much, even a little bit less, especially compared with Baizhenlou's monthly income.

After all, without Wen Xiang as the backing, Baizhenlou would have been targeted and eaten alive long ago.

However, Wen Xiang was very satisfied with the five thousand taels of silver.

It's not that he is short-sighted.

He is a gentleman of letters. He has known Mr. Lu for a long time. Over the years of ups and downs in officialdom, he is used to intrigues and intrigues.

It actually made him cherish this sincere childhood friendship even more.

All along, in his heart, the descendants of the Lu family are no different from his descendants.

He is willing to help his younger generation without reservation as long as it is not evil.

Therefore, giving too much money seemed to him an insult to this sincere friendship.

But as he and Mr. Lu grow older, the friendship between the younger generations will become less and less. Continuing to provide such unreserved help will naturally arouse dissatisfaction among the younger generations.

The gift of five thousand taels not only preserved the pure friendship of the past, but also told the rest of the Wen family that the person they were helping did not just take things without giving back.

Moreover, Lu Yaoyao also confessed in private that whenever anyone from the Wen family comes to Baizhen Tower, they will be treated to the highest standards and all consumption will be free of charge.

Considering how popular Baizhen Tower is in the capital, this kind of treatment is very useful to the young people of the Wen family.

The Wen family has an elder like Wen Xiang who is a scholar and a gentleman. Most of the younger members of the family are modest and reasonable, but they have not caused any trouble in Baizhen Tower because of their privileges.

On the contrary, sometimes when they encounter blind people causing trouble here, they will stand up and help.

"Okay, you go down."

Shopkeeper Zhou packed up his account books and exited the box.

"Miss, it's still early, let's go out for a walk?"

"This slave has not been to the capital yet."

After finally coming out, Qiu Yu didn't want to sit in the private room of Baizhen Building all morning.

"Let's go, let's go see the prosperity of the capital."

Lu Yaoyao came out so early, so naturally he wanted to go shopping.

She has been in this world for more than ten years, but she has not even visited the capital.

The three masters and servants left the private room, and Qiu Shuang spent many years in the capital. The job of guide naturally fell on her.

Although it was still early, the lobby of Baizhen Building was already bustling with people.

The three of them went down the stairs to the first floor.

Shopkeeper Zhou came over quickly.

"Go and do your work and come back at noon."

The three masters and servants walked out. As soon as they reached the door, a group of people came towards them.

The leader was a rich, middle-aged man in luxurious clothes, walking with an arrogant figure, a mustache, small eyes with single eyelids, and loose and green eyebands.

Behind him was a boy and two guards with swords.

"His Royal Highness is traveling, the people in front of you should get out of the way and don't block the way."

The boy who spoke also had a very arrogant attitude.

When Lu Yaoyao and the other three people who were still inside the door heard the title His Highness the County King, their faces showed surprise.

And at this moment of surprise, the fat prince also noticed them.

To be precise, I noticed Lu Yaoyao at the front.

A pair of narrowed eyes doubled in size in an instant.

Although Lu Yaoyao is wearing relatively ordinary clothes today, it cannot hide her ethereal and fairy-like temperament and her delicate and charming face.

"Those in front, get out of here quickly, you didn't see my prince."

Before the arrogant boy could finish his words, the fat prince raised his hand and slapped him hard on the back of the head.

"You bastard, don't hit the beauty."

When he said this, his eyes never left Lu Yaoyao for a moment.

The fat face also unknowingly turned into Brother Pig.

Looking like this, Lu Yaoyao frowned slightly, and his bright eyes filled with disgust.

"Let's go."

As soon as Lu Yaoyao took a step, the fat prince rushed forward in two or three steps.

He reached out to grab Lu Yaoyao's arm.

Seeing this, Qiu Yu and Qiu Shuang stepped forward to stop the fat prince who was rushing towards him and push him away.

"presumptuous."

"You are so bold and a lowly servant that you dare to attack His Highness the County King."

Swish.

At the same time as the boy's voice sounded, the two accompanying guards with swords also drew out their long knives and stepped forward.

"Step back, what are you doing?"

"Don't rush into my beauty."

The servants were shouted back, and the fat prince turned his head and opened his mouth, showing an ugly smile.

He rubbed his hands and took a step forward, making a nondescript salute.

"This king is so polite."

"I bumped into a beauty just now. I am here to apologize to you."

There was a lot of commotion here, shopkeeper Zhou also came out of the lobby, and when he saw the fat prince, his expression immediately changed.

He secretly screamed something bad and hurriedly stepped forward.

"Prince Yunjun is here to welcome you. I'm sorry for the delay in greeting you, please forgive me."

When greeting Prince Yun, shopkeeper Zhou even gave Lu Yaoyao a subtle wink, telling her to leave quickly.

Lu Yaoyao raised his eyebrows and glanced at Prince Yun.

An unpredictable smile flashed across the corner of his mouth.

Her smile made Prince Yun even more fascinated, and his heart roared with excitement.

"Beauty, she is truly a beauty that is unique in the world."

"I must get her, I must"

Seeing his enthusiastic eyes and expression, Lu Yaoyao turned around and walked towards the place where the carriage was parked.

He has no intention of paying any attention to Prince Yun.

Seeing this scene, the arrogant young man was about to yell out, but was pulled back by the accompanying guard.

Are you so blind? Didn't you see that the prince was already in a state of ecstasy? Are you still scolding me at this time, aren't you looking for death?

"Beauty, walk slowly."

The beauty wants to leave, what will happen?

Prince Yun quickly took two steps forward and showed a smile that he thought was kind, but in the eyes of others was extremely vulgar.

"I still don't know the beauty's name."

"How old are you? Have you ever been promised a wife?"
